I would have to agree with Alea -- installing an additional key handler
contradicts my minimalist needs. I believe that most users (maybe all) use
their keyboard to manage the windows.

I believe users should be able to decide if they fully want to follow the
"Inter-Client Communication Conventions Manual" specification. I think
that options should be considered:

./configure --break-ICCMP --enable-key-handling

Nevertheless, I do like how bbkeys has any easy-to-use interface for
configurations.
